Yes I know they are not as big bt there’s still smtn to learn from how structured they are and how they did it. Lagos has not gotten to a true mega city despite running a large economy. So much wastage and corruption along with the good ideas and intentions.

jaxxy:
I will only agree on the electricity part. That was abit deliberate. Remember also obasanjo then was fighting another level of war with his deputy atiku. A huge distraction many don’t realize the dept and how he had to manage the economy and country while dealing with such an issue of an influential vice in a new democracy.

jaxxy:
U simply don’t like obasanjo I can see that bt pls acknowledge his brilliance where he showed sm cos we currently have one of the dullest Presidents in history since he left. I hear so much noise about ajaokuta for it not to have functioned in 40 years under different presidents means theirs more to it and need to be addressed differently or properly bt it’s not the only problem this country faces.

We need the best hands to lead the economy. I look at Dubai and see what they have done in a short time from oil revenue and we are here wasting away. We need drastic action and policies to move ahead.

jaxxy:
Lol and buahri is what then? After sending us to recession. Obj had a weakness he liked to control it all cos he always felt he knew better and he probably did bt nobody really knows it all. I believe he meant well each time. All the things u mentioned were the failed privatization adventure they hurriedly embarked on and it collapsed due to poor execution amongst others things like inexperienced And poor knowledge in privatization and sm greed. However it wasn’t done to kill the economy but relieve sm burden from government while making money for government by its sales bt they miscalculated like I said.

Nobody talks about how he brought in technocrats like NOI and Cleared most of our debts or sustaina the economy or the policy he revolutionized, like pension schemes, EFCC and many more. We just look at the failed privatization only. Not exactly fair

Obasanjo is the greatest president we probably ever had. Great can only recognize Great!

oforjide:
Bill clinton and george bush visited obasanjo under his civilian govt I don't believe it. From 1999 till this year I have never heard nor watched any american president in this country. Please op I need to be clarified tell me the year and the month or else you are telling lies

pcicero:
I didn't even care to read most of the dumb comments because most of them were still in diapers while OBJ ruled.

Hate him or like him, OBJ is by far the most nationalistic and charismatic leader Nigeria has ever had. He had his hubris like every other human, but he has always placed this country above every other primordial sentiments.

Apart form his botched third term agenda, the only other reason why my folks detest him was because of Lagos-Abeokuta expressway that he didn't fix.

IgboTyphoon:
You just ranting off point. Again the debate is about high taxes vs low taxes which leads to bigger productivity

Gazzy88:
What of 1978?

PrecisionFx:
Ur arguments remain daft

PrecisionFx:
How does any stupid thing in this link mean that calabar, Onitsha, Onne n delta state seaports are functional?

If u have nothing to show, just shatap

BeautifulMind2:
Only reasonable place in Lagos is just Ikoyi, Lakki, VI and Banana Island other areas in Lagos are slumbs

deomelo:
Of course.

PrecisionFx:
There's nothing special in Lagos leading the pack, We have 6 seaports n river ports shutdown by FG in eastern Nigeria, once they are opened, Lagos igr will fall like old breast

ITbomb:
Once we finish Ibom Seaport, everything will change

Just for MORE clarity... Nigeria gets crude oil EXPORT money from
the list below:

1. Nigeria gets crude oil EXPORT money from the South of South States.
[The cardinal points do not have anything called South-South].

2. South-Western States of Ondo and Lagos. [Ondo state generates 3
times more crude oil especially offshore than what Imo and Abia produce
based on official annual production data].

3. Then the South-Eastern States of Imo and Abia.

4. Nigeria also generates income from VAT and other taxes from
Lagos State which accounts for over 50 percent of VAT and from
other parts of Nigeria.


More sources of income for Nigeria exist especially from the global
financial markets investments.

Hope this helps.
